What are the benefits of fearing walking in the fear of God? II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes

I greet you all in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
I thank God for yet another day to soak our life with the word of God. We have been talking for some time now about the fear of God. Yesterday we saw some of the benefits of walking in the fear of God. Today I want to share more scriptures on the benefits of walking in the fear of God. This is to allow you to see that walking in the fear of God affects every area of our lives. Without the fear of God in a person’s life, he is headed for a defeated and wretched life.
Here are some other benefits of fearing God:

  • God arranges for you to own property: 

“But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive. And it came to pass, because the midwives feared
God, that he made them houses” (Exodus 1:17,21)

  • Walking in the fear of God leads to your promotion in career 

”That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many” Nehemiah 7:2

  • Walking in the fear of God releases the goodness of God over your life in a city and protects you! 

“Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man; thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvelous kindness in a strong city” Psalm 31:19-21

  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees your provision in famine

“There is no king saved by the multitude of a host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. A horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine” (Psalm 33: 16-19)
“O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him” Psalm 34:9

  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees answers to your prayers 

“He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: He also will hear their cry, and will save them. Psalm 145:19 

May the benefits of walking in the fear of God become more real to you from this day onward in Jesus Name!

Till tomorrow,
Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

Sodom and Gomorrah is a clear example of how sin brings a destruction and tragedy into the life of a whole nation.

  • Don’t ever allow anything or anybody to stop you from serving.

    Friends, no matter how badly people or life itself has treated you, if you want to move ahead in life you have to learn how to focus on the right thing and chose the right life position. If despite all the odds of life you can still focus on using your gifts and talents; if you can still continue to serve people, then you will soon be able to change your status. That was exactly what happened to Joseph. As he served these two officers of pharaoh instead of concentrating on the offences of others, the door to his throne opened to him easily. Pharaoh sent for Joseph and fetched him out of the prison.
